5.00Our guide Fatima was fantastic. Her English was spot on and she explained everything so well and gave many theories when answers were unknown. The Mosque - Cathedral in Cordoba is absolutely amazing and what the Romans did in keeping’s the Mosque but putting a Cathedral inside was unique. Thank you, Fatima, for all your care in answering everyone’s questions and providing so much history in such a short time frame!
Not to miss, while in Cordoba!

4.00The Trip Advisor confirmation failed to provide any information on how to find the right guide. We had to go from group to group asking if they spoke English. Once we found the correct tour, it was good.
To do absolutely
